This may be starting to drift off topic, but I can't tell you how many times I've had the experience, or seen someone else have the experience, where...
Unconsciously or not, what I am getting at is whether you are suggesting the student is behaving this way with conscious intent. I take it for...
So, you say they pretend not to notice?
Are you suggesting malice?
You may have been around the block a few times. So have I. If you feel that it is too much of an emotional burden to continuing without saying...
